Alex Mufson, LCSW
Integrative Care Strategist
Alex Mufson is the founder of Canary House and serves as the practice’s Integrative Care Strategist, responsible for the clinical architecture, sequencing, and coherence of complex care. She holds a Master’s in Social Work from Boston University and has spent her career directing and stabilizing multidisciplinary treatment teams across residential and outpatient settings.Alex specializes in high-complexity cases that span systems, specialties, and time. Her work centers on advanced case analysis, pattern recognition, and clinical synthesis—integrating psychological, neuroimmune, metabolic, and relational data to determine what matters first, what can wait, and what does not belong in the plan at all.
She is known for her ability to anticipate downstream effects of intervention before they occur, reducing fragmentation, unnecessary escalation, and trial-and-error care. Alex guides the Canary House team through emerging research and non-linear clinical thinking, ensuring each client’s care is deliberate, paced, and internally consistent.
Her strategic leadership is informed by lived experience navigating complex medical systems, giving her uncommon fluency in both clinical nuance and client experience. Alex’s role is not volume of care, but precision—holding the full map of the case so each intervention lands at the right time, for the right reason, within a cohesive treatment container.

Brie Valletto, LCPC
Complex Trauma Specialist
Brie Valletto is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor and Complex Trauma Specialist with advanced training in Clinical Psychology and a career spanning the full continuum of mental health care, including inpatient, residential, therapeutic boarding schools, and outpatient settings.
Brie’s work centers on high-complexity, high-functioning individuals whose suffering is often masked by competence, productivity, or adaptation. She specializes in trauma that is layered, relational, and physiological, where distress does not present cleanly, and symptom reduction alone is insufficient.
Known for her clinical depth and relational precision, Brie brings a senior-level therapeutic presence to one-on-one work. She is particularly skilled at identifying the subtle patterns that emerge when trauma, chronic stress, and long-standing physiological strain intersect, and at helping clients make sense of experiences that have previously felt diffuse or unnameable.
Within Canary House, Brie provides individual and group care that is both steady and exacting. Her work supports differentiation, integration, and psychological flexibility, even in circumstances that feel entrenched or overwhelming. She is deeply trusted for her ability to hold complexity without urgency, and depth without destabilization.

Karla Gomez, MA
Bioadaptive Regulation Specialist
Karla Gomez is a Bioadaptive Regulation Specialist with advanced graduate-level training at the intersection of psychology, trauma, and physiology. She holds a Master’s in Psychology with a concentration in ethnogenic-assisted psychotherapy, along with post-master’s training in trauma counseling.
Karla works directly with clients whose symptoms reflect long-standing dysregulation rather than discrete psychological conditions. Her one-on-one work focuses on how stress, trauma, environmental exposures, and cumulative biological load shape regulation across the nervous, endocrine, and immune systems over time.
She brings particular expertise in translating biomarker trends, physiological signals, and adaptive patterns into clinically meaningful insight. Karla helps clients understand not only what their bodies are doing, but why those adaptations developed and how regulation can be restored through careful pacing, sequencing, and attuned intervention.
Within Canary House, Karla provides grounded, physiology-informed support that helps clients feel oriented rather than overwhelmed. Her work emphasizes clarity, containment, and gradual restoration of capacity, allowing complex systems to settle and reorganize without force.
